Grapefruit Fizz

Holy jeeburs, people. Fancyhats and I had the most delicious drink of all time last night. I know you’re all looking for your summer drink, and I HAVE FOUND IT.

We ate some salad (fiber = blerg) at Pizza Fino last night and enjoyed their grapefruit fizz. Two of them, actually. I mean, we both had two, and then I licked the inside of my glass because it was either that, or weep bitter tears of loss. And I would have taken a picture, but Fancyhats left his mePhone at home. He did it on purpose, even.

I was standing at the door while he checked twitter one last time punched bad guys in the face and the reroofed the house and he turned to me and said, “I’m leaving my mePhone at home.”

And I said, “HOLY GOD HOW WILL THE INTERNET KNOW WHAT WE’RE DOING? HOW WILL IT KNOW THAT I AM FABULOUS?!?” “Okay.”

And we left with only my $10 Nokia phone. I know. I KNOW.

So the drink. It’s prosecco with some grapefruit bitters, a sugar cube and a twist of grapefuit rind. Served in a champagne flute. Um. Hello, awesome.

Please note, you can make grapefruit bitters at home. Please note note that that link link (I’ll stop) goes to a blog based in Portland. Yes, of course, the first google link for grapefruit bitters is a post about making it from scratch from a blog in Portland. Oh Portland, you with your DIY-ness and fancy drinkie-ness, I just want to squish your wittle cheeky weekies.
